“Tax the rich.”
No, we're not talking about the hardworking doctor saving lives and the scientist looking for a cure for cancer.
We are talking about the billionaires who can afford to live a thousand lives, while their workers can barely afford to live one.
@GlebJoutetsu During this ongoing Iran conflict that TRUMP started, Russia has been aiding Iran. Supplying significant intel and military assistance. Tell us again how Russia is not the enemy, even though they are actively working against us.
Stop what you are doing because you need to read this.
Billions of dollars in oil trades were perfectly timed to Trump’s decision to back off attacking Iranian power plants.
Trump announced the reversal just 15 minutes after those trades were placed. Stocks surged while oil prices plummeted, setting up whoever placed those bets to make a fortune.
Career analysts at the CFTC, the agency responsible for policing these markets, did exactly what they were supposed to do: they started digging.
And what they found was serious enough to refer the trades for a potential insider trading investigation. That is, until a senior advisor to a Trump appointee shut it down.
Congress needs answers about who made these bets, who had advanced knowledge of Trump’s decision, and why political leadership at the CFTC stepped in.
The Trump administration has some serious explaining to do, because there’s a ton of money missing and zero explanation for where it went.
The US has collected an estimated $13 billion in Venezuelan oil revenue, and at least $10 billion of it is unaccounted for.
And the independent audits that it promised Congress? Congress still doesn’t have them.
Whatever you think American foreign policy towards Venezuela should be, Congress and the public should be able to follow the money.
Elon Musk spent $290 million to elect Trump. It paid off.
Since his election, Musk got $696 billion richer & became the world’s 1st trillionaire.
But that’s not enough.
Now, Musk is spending $366 million to keep Republicans in control of Congress.
STOP MUSK. STOP OLIGARCHY.
Apparently Russian servers have been hit by a Ukrainian strike and immediately massive online hard right chatter has collapsed.
This particular chatter was in support of Germany’s AFD, their equivalent to Reform, but similar patterns are being seen in hard right movements everywhere, including the UK.
If anyone needed anymore evidence that Russia are driving a massive wave of hard right propaganda in Europe, this is it.
So, all you “patriots” - you’ve been duped by Russia, and you are about as far from patriotic as anyone can be. You are easily brainwashed though. This is how propaganda works.
@omgsidewalks Every fake account on every social media platform should be illegal , eliminated , or at bare minimum given a "bot" label.
They only allow it because the drama , fighting , and shock appeal rises engagement. These accounts promote disinformation and harmful violent rhetoric.
@omgsidewalks The most disgusting part of this is that X knows exactly where that traffic is coming from and they still allow it because it helps Republicans. And when Russians regroup, these obvious bot accounts will be welcome on the site again.
So Zelensky took out a major Russian bot farm and social media traffic on X and other sites dropped by 50%. HALF of the traffic on social media is nothing but Russian propaganda bots and trolls.
Things that make you go hmmmm.
